Cru Kids are invited to spread a little kindness to UMHB students participating in the annual Easter Pageant. We aim to give a handwritten note to each student and will need 300 cards. Download our card templates, create your own, and return them to the alumni office by March 20. Join us on Monday, March 30, at 4:30 p.m. to help pass them out to the cast. This is a small way for all of us to spread some kindness.
